Video: Watch UFC champ Jon Jones, Anthony Johnson give Dana White a heart attack

LOS ANGELES – For a minute there, UFC President Dana White clearly had a look on his face that suggested the fight promotion had another PR disaster on its hands.

During today’s “UFC: Welcome to the Show” press conference in Los Angeles, the UFC’s top stars gathered to promote their fights and the UFC’s upcoming schedule.

However, during the customary face-offs, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and upcoming title challenger Anthony Johnson went forehead to forehead before shoving ensued. Then, as White was in an obvious panic, they began laughing, hugging and assuring the boss that it was all joke.

The scene, of course, looked like the beginning of an infamous brawl between Jones and recent opponent Daniel Cormier in 2014 (watch the video below).

Check out the latest video above.

And catch Jones (21-1 MMA, 15-1 UFC) and Johnson (19-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) in action on May 23, when they serve as pay-per-view headliners at UFC 187 in Las Vegas.
